Officers responded to a domestic assault complaint, and the suspect fled on foot, Cecchini said in a released statement.

While officers were searching for him, several people pointed in a particular direction, yelling, “He went that way.”

Sgt. Caleb Rowell walked in the direction they were pointing and discovered Costilla “holding the suspect with his arm behind his back.” Rowell then took the suspect into custody with no further problems.

“Mr. Costilla put himself in danger to serve his neighborhood and assist police in apprehending a subject who was subsequently charged with multiple felonies,” the press release states.
